deeks_turbo Member 10 Member For: 17y 8m 28d Location: Brisbane Posted 19/04/07 10:38 AM Share Posted 19/04/07 10:38 AM Hey guys,just got a custom edit from Elite Auto in Bris. I have to say Paul and the guys down there where great. I was a little apprehensive about getting it don't at first but now I can't get the smail off my face. I got a custom 8psi and 10psi tune. Just a question:Will the stock clutch handle the 225KW at the wheels produced by the 8psi tune? Im not really going to run the 10psi tune that often.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
